        This window allows the display of the chronograms of the previously selected signals. You will notice the menu, the toolbar, two display areas and the buttons.

        <b>The display area</b>On the right three columns: the first presents an icon of the type of signal (bus or singlle) then we have the name and finally the signal value under the cursor (the red line in the graph). It is possible to move the cursor with the mouse, just click and move. <b class="tkeybd">Right-clicking</b> on the row of a bus-type signal displays a pop-up menu with two options:
      </p>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <b class=menu>|&nbsp;Format&nbsp;|</b> This menu opens a selection of the signal display base (binary, hexadecimal, octal, signed, unsigned)
        </li>
        <li>
          <b class=menu>|&nbsp;Expand&nbsp;|</b> Display, below, the chronogram of each signal.
        </li>
      </ul>
      <p>
        <b>Buttons:</b> There are three buttons at the bottom of our window.
      </p>
      <ul>
        <li>
          <b class="button">Load file</b> Loads and displays the result from a previously saved file. This does not allow to set the simulation.
        </li>
        <li>
          <b class="button">Export...</b> Exports the data into a text file. You will need to specify the file name in the select window. The file format is easy. The first line contains the names of the columns separated by a tab. The second line shows the signal and time scale if selected. The following lines show the value of its signals separated by a tab. The third line is the initialization and then each line represents a half-period of the clock <var>sysclk</var>.
